> Everyone struggles with being selfish. It's good to be aware of our own self-interested impulses and work towards counteracting them. So why not have mandatory training at work that teaches us that we're all selfish at some level and that we need to address that character flaw?
A for profit corporation is the very definition of selfishness. And you think that a corporation can teach you "not to be selfish" when the entire goal is productivity in order to make someone a whole lot more money that you will ever earn? You don't see a contradiction in what you are saying?
It can't get more hypocritical like that. These trainings only exist to benefit the corporation, not the individual subjected to these. The perfect alliance between soviet style propaganda techniques (struggle sessions to break the individual) and hyper capitalism.
And no, everybody does not struggle with being selfish. Everybody isn't selfish.
By victimizing their employees with "diversity training" on the other hand, corporations have found the perfect way to break them, with the approval and moral support of the left. In fact, many corporations known for their anti-union schemes do also force their employees through these "diversity training" sessions.
